"Upstairs in our house, my dad keeps an old typewriter in an office that he never uses. One day, my mom and I heard the sound of typing coming from upstairs. I went to the office to check it out, but no one was there, and the typewriter was turned off. Out of curiosity, I loaded it with paper, turned it on, and left the room. The next day, I saw the words 'Maary I here' written on the paper. My little sister's name is Mary, so I thought she'd typed it — but she swore she didn't. The next day, there was another message: 'Where am I?' Then, the day after that, there was another note: 'Maary, come play with me.' My parents, sister, and I haven't touched that typewriter since!"
